Crunch

Place is cool! Right down the street from me which makes it convenient! Price is not bad, 15 bucks on a month to month with 0 down! I like to go at night so it doesn’t get too crowded! Cool atmosphere with a fresh vibe!

We were original members before it became Crunch Fitness. The club was dirty, neglected and things always breaking. Once Ginny came in it was night and day. All new equipment, tanning, hydro massage, new classes and even a cleaning crew! The team there is like family! Ginny, Luke, Randy, Louise, Jen and Annalisa to name a few are amazing! The kids care is the cleanest with the kindest gals around caring for our little one. Love everything about this gym and the staff!

This Crunch Fitness has a great general manager of whom is very friendly. Her name is Ginny May and she is very talkative and friendly with her clients. Overall, the staff there, especially Luke McCombie are all fun, helpful and easy to work with. Luke brought me into the gym and had me meet Ginny. From there, they gave me a $ 0 enrollment fee and I now spend only $ 19.99 per month for my membership and a «Bring A Buddy» Pass!
If you want a single enrollment, it will be only $ 9.95 from what I know and usually you can catch the $ 0 dollar down sale they do from time to time.
Their cardio equipment and room is separate from the weight room which is nice because I know that many people don’t want Professional body builders and power lifters training extremely aggressive while you are simply trying to burn calories, cut weight or get a great cardio session in for your general fitness goals.
Their weight room is massive and contains more benches for free weights. I like this particularly because at 24 hour fitness, they don’t have as many benches for free weights and barbell exercises.
Their weight machines can work well just for about anyone as they have many different types, even machines that help support body weight for beginners, elderly and the injured.
I like that they have an upper level designed for personal training and martial arts as well. They have many heavy bags for boxing and kickboxing and just underneath that second level is another area designed for cross fit work/​functional fitness and personal training.
Crunch also offers spin class, boot camp classes and yoga just to mention a few.
Overall, I am happy with the service, cleanliness and versatility of the gym.
Although it is not a 24 hour service gym, I gave this gym 5 stars because all other aspects make up for it not being open for 24 hours.

Friendly customer service as soon as you walk in the door! Great spot for a gym with plenty of various work out options, classes, personal trainers. Though the parking lot gets filled around 9:30−10 a. m I always manage to find a spot and there is plenty of parking the rest of the time. The staff is very helpful and there for you with any questions or assistance. They have a very clean gym, lots of lockers and showers, tanning bed and a hydro massage! I noticed protein drinks and bars available which really came in handy that day. Did I mention how low cost??? Very affordable! The music in on point with plenty of televisions which you can tune into with you smart phone when doing cardio. I highly recommend Crunch gym Temecula/​Winchester

This is a awesome Gym. I love the atmosphere, People actually pushing themselves to look good. Staff is very friendly and will help you with anything. I would recommend this gym to anyone. If I didn’t move a hour away, I would use this gym forever.

I absolutely love working out at Crunch! The facility is always so clean and the amenities are a plus. Not only do they offer a wide variety of classes, they also offer tanning and hydro. The staff is so wonderful and the energy is so positive the minute you walk in the door. All around, great atmosphere and we are all one big gym family! I recommend if you’re looking for a top quality gym, sign up today!

By mostly fluke, I’ve actually been a member of two of the major Crunch gyms in Socal. The Burbank Location (one of the best gyms I’ve been to) and the West Hollywood Location (one of the worst High End gyms I’ve been to). When I moved out to Murrieta /​Temecula I was expecting something close to its L.A. brethren. Um, not even close. Crunch Winchester has … almost nothing in common with other Crunch gyms I’ve been to in SoCal. It’s like Night and Day.
The gym itself has a very oddball layout. The cardio section is completely segregated from the weight room. The cardio section seems fine. The weight room is … far from fine. It’s sloppy — weights are every where. Plates are stacked on top of plates. The Benches are all worn out and there’s a mishmash of benches. There are like two that have a functional incline, and the rest or just flat. A couple of them look like they were purchased from a 1980s Sears Fitness Catalogue. Some of the machines are broken from time to time, a lot of them are out dated and not your typical Crunch machines.
It’s not very clean and the weight room is often crowded because the layout isn’t awesome. Also parking is absurdly difficult because its in a former industrial park with a church on the other side. On Sundays, its like the only place in Riverside County I have to park on the street. The hours are also kind of limited. I’ve shown up on Saturdays at 7 am (listed opening time) and no one was here to open.
This place reminded me less of Crunch and more of … L.A. Fitness?
The good? It’s really cheap. I pay $ 14.99 a month, and my wife pays $ 30-​ish (so she can get free spin class). It’s close to our current condo (less than 5 minutes).
It’s one of those place where you bring your own towel and just say, It’s fine under your breath.

Let me start off by saying I am very disgusted of this crunch gym. I been going to different crunches for about 4 years, I am currently and still a duke at the fort Myers location in Florida, never have I seen a gym so poorly organized weights stacked on top of other weights nothing is order or returned in its proper place. I am ashamed to claim this as my gym. I understand you might be a personal trainer and may work at the gym it doesn’t mean you allow to leave it a mess and violate the rules that are posted on the wall. For example today, you an individual that works here working out with his buddy that is taking up one full squat rack as well as another ones area which may timid other to try and squeeze in and use it, also they were there for at least 1hr this is unfair to other individuals that workout at this location. I expect a reply regarding my concerns thank you. Chris

FIND ANOTHER GYM! Unless you want your card details hacked and account billed incorrectly like so many ppl on here have!!! Read the not recommended reviews!!!

Located down the street from Stater Bros. on Winchester Road, off Benton Road/​Penfield, it’s nice having a Crunch to visit when we’re in Temurrieta! Super clean, not crowded and it’s near our eye doctor’s office!
Hubby and I have only been here once, but he really likes it better than the bigger gyms b/​c he doesn’t have to wait for equipment.
My all time fave Zumba instructor there is Kieran. She’s the hawt diggity bomb! Too bad she’s just a sub there now. They should put her back on. I’m trying to convince her to sub at the Carmel Valley location– lol I told her she can sleep over my house. I am one of her besties so I think she should drive down here to shake it with me! Plus we feed her! lol Check her class out next time she subs. She’s awesome.

Great gym! Clean facility, AMAZING staff and all round atmosphere. Highly recommend this gym to everyone.

I travel between Carlsbad, San Marcos, Vista and Winchester. The staff at the Winchester location are always the nicest and friendliest. Especially Luke always taking the time out to make sure that I am taken care of. The staff is also always smiling and makes the environment friendly and welcoming. Keep up the good work Winchester!

Love this Gym! as soon as i walked in i felt at home! Staff is Amazing! Ginny helped sign me and always remembers me when i walk in!

Started a gym membership a year ago and had a little misunderstanding with a personal trainer and fees but they (management) took care of everything in a timely and professional manner. Since then I love coming and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Facility is clean and has nice new equipment. Classes are fun and my son loves going to the daycare. Overall is a great place to work out.

It’s a small gym so it’s somewhat limited. The staff seems pretty cool so I gave an extra star for that.

Under new ownership and I feel like I am being nickel and dimed every time I work with them. When they first took over I was being double charged every month and they asked me to call in each month to initiate a refund instead of taking the initiative to check their records. Then I had a situation where I wasn’t going to be in town so I asked to freeze my membership for a couple months. They said no problem just come in. I come in the last day of the month and they say I’ll have to pay for the next month because I didn’t give 10 days notice even though I called and notified them a week prior.

Crunch took over from Temecula Valley Fitness and reopened on January 2 with a new layout and equipment. WOW!!! I’ve been a member of this gym since it opened as TVF years ago and I’ve never been so impressed with the facility or the ownership. Ginny and Todd have managed to keep the neighborhood feel of the old gym and blend it with a modern high energy environment. This gym is ideal for people who are serious about getting fit but want a warm and friendly place to work out.
Crunch Temecula is not a typical gym and not a meat market. It’s filled with nice people and a fantastic staff.
Special thanks go to Ginny and Todd for giving us a great gym.

I’m glad that crunch took over for the previous gym. It was in need of a revamp.
Currently, this is a small gym with limited equipment, however, this is in the process of being changed. The current renovation should be finished by Jan 1, 2015. This will include the addition of new equipment.
I like that I haven’t had to wait that often for a piece of equipment and it generally isn’t that crowded.
They have some great membership options…$ 9.99/month-to-month is pretty solid, especially for someone who just needs weights to get a good workout in.
The staff has been awesome and always greets you with a smile.

Only reason it has four stars instead of five is because the gym is still going through renovations, they’re expanding and adding so definitely will write after it’s completed!
Price — customizable and reasonable, it’s 9.95 if you want to use equipment only, 19.95 if you want to use equipment and attend classes and don’t quote me but I think 29.95 if you want all the above and unlimited use of tanning beds and hydro massage bed (which have not come yet) plus bring a guest and other perks. Of course there is start up fee and an annual fee, paid once a year. No cancellation fee or fees to freeze your account. They weren’t pushy about me getting a membership. Todd (awesome character by the way) just gave me a tour, run down of the future renovations, negotiated prices, and set up, bamm done.
Atmosphere — clean, smeadium sized, fantastic staff and not overly crowded. Though the classes can get quite packed it was still workable. They also had a separate specialty area designated for Pilates, it’s a separate fee if your into improving flexibility and all that good stuff. I really can’t wait for the renovations because it will open more space for everything from cardio, weight training, classes, personal training, cycling to circuit. I think they’re goal was by January.
Classes — challenging but lots of fun! Haven’t tried all of them yet but the ones I’ve been to has me wanting to go back and kick the routine’s butt! In January they will be adding more classes, forgot the official names but one is something along the lines of stiletto work out and a hip hop course. For now only 7 to 8 classes which is plenty in my opinion.
Cons — There is no pool or sauna :(
